Not as far as I know, maybe someone else knows different.

Man he looks good although with all the bits it took me a bit to find his face.

"More than just craftsmen, Forge Seers also take to the battlefield alongside the warjacks they help create. These Greylords apply their knowledge of magic and mechanika to imbue the weapons of warjacks with the power needed to cut down unnatural foes who are more than flesh and steel. Clad in Man-O-War armor, Greylord Forge Seers charge into battle with the hiss of steam in their ears and the chill of winter at their fingertips."
From the sounds of it, he is going to be giving out magic weapons and we have been told before that he will be our way of handing out extra focus. Here is my baseless speculation based on the MoW Kovnic and Bad Santa.
I think he is going to be 5 Pts, Mv 4,Mat 7 Rat -, def 10 arm 15 with 8 boxes.
He will have a great big rune axe with around P+S=14 rng 1. Magic.
An ability to give out Magic weapons in a bubble to to jacks and Man o War
He will be a Battle Wizard with Magic Ability [8]
With the Spells:
Frost Bite (The pow 12 spray)
Empower (Allocate a focus, remove disruption)
On top of these I think he will need a couple more tools. These could be Dispel on the axe or as a spell. Crit/Stationary is also an option. I do not think he will have a spell to give out magic weapons unless it's Sigil of power, the same spell as Ariyana. And I would prefer it to be a static effect.

I am hoping for a *action that hands out magic weapons in his control area or to a model/unit.

That's actually the first I've seen of that render. I have to admit, it looks better than I expected. I assume you mean 16, since that's the base ARM for non-shield-carrying MOW. Honestly, I'm not sure how I would feel about them giving him Empower. I mean, I bought my Koldun Lord specifically for his MkII version of the ability. PP took it away from him and gave him something... well I don't want to say that it's useless, but it does seem to be extremely situational. If they did that only to give the ability back on a fairly similar model (thematically at least, he is a Greylord after all), well, it kinda feels stupid at best, and a cynical cash-grab at worst. Would people argue that this is a net positive as the new model will be more durable? Or not because he's (probably) more expensive and slower (and most caster who take lots of jacks have ways of speeding them up, and ones that don't usually don't care enough about their jacks to pay 5 points for a single extra focus)? |

Yeah, I'm not exactly thrilled by the Koldun Lord losing empower in the transition either. Sorta surprised they didn't give him wind wall, as it would have helped him get up the board along with a unit of ternions, but what do I know I'm not a game designer... -_-' |

Ah, You are correct. My mistake. I also agree that giving him empower would be a waste. But that is what has been said he will get (although that was quite a while ago and said before we knew what themes would be). |

I'm kinda miffed at the Koldun Lord too. I played him regularly until our meta saw less and less use of Eiryss.
